It's Time to Classify me

[Levant15]

I'm not gonna ask the where I can pass question cause I know I won't pass outside of MENA. Maybe Latin America or South Asia. No Europe.
Most people think I'm Lebanese or Iraqi when they meet me.
I happen to have a much darker skin than everyone in my family. A few times I was mistaken for indian or Paki.

You pass as Maltese or Sicilian (more of a long shot).

I happen to find this photo of Samaritans.
The guy in the blue cap looks like me. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180405/5502f4bf3a94dcdaa19f65fa54bec7d8.jpg

Anadolid + Iranid

You pass as Maltese or Sicilian (more of a long shot).Do you think so? I guess some of them are bit dark based on Google images.
I know the rest of my family can pass in most of South Europe including Mainland Italy.

Can you try to Classify me?

I think you can pass as darker spectrum Sicilian.
You can pass as darker spectrum Ashkenazi.
Your East Med is pretty much in our ballpark.
And you do have notable Italian ancestry.

[The Blade]

Robust Iranid with very possible East Med admixture.

[Tauromachos]

Paleo Levantid

[Sp_loa]

You can pass as Mizrahi Jew

Ashkenazi? More Mizrahi. He looks very levantine to me.

[Haider]

Where are you guys seeing Iranid? He looks South Levantine - Palestinian or Jordanian. Fits better in Egypt than Iran.

Indeed he does.
The vast majority of Ashkenazim and Sicilians are lighter and less East Med/Red Sea in appearance.
He can pass on the darker spectrum of Ashkenazim and Sicilians in my opinion, the minority ones that are far higher than average admixed with MENA.
By no means is he anywhere near typical for either group, but I have just noted exceptions.
I was just telling him in my opinion what outlier European populations he could pass as atypical in.

[waam]

You kind of look like my uncle.

Ashkenazi? More Mizrahi. He looks very levantine to me.I agree with you.
I was sitting in the the airport lounge waiting for my airplane to depart last week in Phoenix then an Ashkenazi family came and sat next to me. They thought I was a Mizrahi from Israel.

Maybe Egypt and Iran but not the Arab peninsula. I tried to pass as a Saudi with Saudis I met in college but they never bought it. They said I'm Lebanese.

You can pass for Iraqi or Assyrian. But you look very Pali/Jewish.

East-Med.
